Mixed Media
Red Skirt
12 x 18 x 1 in.
Movement, ecstasy, yearning-all are revealed in the dance! Fascinated, I find the dancer-art leading me to look at my creativity with new eyes. As a photographer, I start each piece with a camera, portraying an impressionist view of the dance. In this piece, I noticed details of her hand and her flaring skirt. I print and embed the image in encaustic wax, then listen to it tell its tale. As I spend time with it, I add encaustic wax to build layers, also using other media. This tactile approach connects me deeply to the work. This body of work has challenged me to grow as an artist and human. I feel myself asked to look into my very soul to rediscover the multiple facets of my own humanity.
